Not content with objectively serving the neocon war machine by dead-ending the antiwar movement, the International ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) joined members of Latino Movement U.S.A., Hermandad Mexicana Nacional, Federación de Clubes de Chihuahua, and Alianza Hondureña de Los Angeles at a rally to protest the immigration raid and mass arrests of illegal aliens at the AgriProcessors plant in Postville, Iowa. AgriProcessors is America's number one supplier of kosher meat, and has been accused of environmental as well as ethical abuses. The raid followed a six month investigation.

"These racist raids are crimes against the immigrant communities from small-town Iowa to Los Angeles," claimed ANSWER's Ian Thompson. "There shouldn’t be any second-class citizens. All people who labor should be recognized and treated as equal under the law. We won’t stop organizing until we achieve full rights for all undocumented people and ICE is shut down completely."

ANSWER is a front group controlled by the Party for Socialism and Liberation, a split from the Trotskyoid Workers World Party, which itself left the Socialist Workers Party in the 1950s because of the SWP's opposition to the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956. The PSL supports every repressive leftist government, from North Korea to Cuba, and recently joined swarms of Chinese immigrants in San Francisco paid by the Red Chinese government to oppose people demanding human rights in Tibet at the recent Olympic torch relay.

ANSWER has also come to dominate the antiwar movement, and while poll numbers show a growing swell of opposition to the Iraq war, ANSWER's marches and protests just get smaller and smaller. Because the ANSWER spectacles are circuses showcasing a huge list of politically correct demands, from "fighting (white) racism" to "gay rights," the kind of people who have the collective social power to force change are turned off. In this sense, ANSWER might as well be getting a paycheck from the neocons, who also happen to share ideological origins in Trotskyism.

Similarly, leftist ideology is so disoriented that its partisans find themselves standing on the side of scab workers who help to destroy the incomes of working class, mainly white, Americans.
